Reflective pedagogies: promoting reflexive practice in archaeological fieldtrips
Status: complete
Funding Initiative: Teaching development fund/mini projects
Description
Round 4 Teaching Development Grant
This project aims to address several important questions regarding the pedagogic role of fieldtrips in archaeology. How is learning taking place on archaeological fieldtrips? Are fieldtrips unproblematic learning environments, or do fieldtrips act to isolate specific groups and individuals? In what ways can fieldtrips promote learning towards autonomy? The project aims to address these questions by critically evaluating the learning experience of archaeological fieldtrips undertaken by a cohort of adult learners during the 2005-6 semesters.
